Benefits of technology

The present invention provides an apparatus for peeling process that prevents damage or deterioration of a semiconductor element due to electric charge generated by peeling. The apparatus includes a unit for wetting the surface of the semiconductor element after peeling with liquid and a flexible substrate for transformation of the element formation layer. The invention also includes a peeling apparatus for peeling layers including a structure from a substrate, where a tank for liquid can be used for wetting the surface of the peeled layer. The technique of the invention prevents electric discharge due to peeling electrification, resulting in increased yield of the manufacturing process and prevention of characteristic deterioration of the semiconductor element. The invention also allows for the use of a flexible substrate for transformation of the element formation layer, increasing versatility of the peeling apparatus and manufacturing apparatus of a semiconductor device.

Problems solved by technology

Even when the semiconductor element can operate without receiving a visible damage, a semiconductor or an insulator deteriorates due to high electric potential application and the semiconductor element does not show expected characteristics in some cases.
Therefore, when electric discharge due to static electricity is generated, the semiconductor element is destroyed, or the integrated circuit itself using the semiconductor element does not operate normally due to characteristic deterioration in some cases.
Electrostatic breakdown is one of causes which drastically reduce yield.
However, since electric discharge due to peeling electrification is generated instantaneously when two layers are separated, electricity is not removed in time by an ionizer in some cases.
However, since surfaces of two layers to be separated are charged in peeling electrification, the electric discharge does not always pass through the protective circuit.
Accordingly, in peeling electrification, electrostatic breakdown is not sufficiently prevented by the protective circuit.
Depending on an intended purpose of the stacked body, the conductive film becomes an obstacle and an expected intended purpose cannot be carried out due to the conductive film in some cases.

Abstract

An object is to eliminate electric discharge due to static electricity generated by peeling when an element formation layer including a semiconductor element is peeled from a substrate used for manufacturing the semiconductor element. A substrate over which an element formation layer and a peeling layer are formed and a film are made to go through a gap between pressurization rollers. The film is attached to the element formation layer between the pressurization rollers. The film is bent along a curved surface of the pressurization roller on a side of the pressurization rollers, where the film is collected, and accordingly, peeling is generated between the element formation layer and the peeling layer and the element formation layer is transferred to the film. Liquid such as pure water is sequentially supplied by a nozzle to a gap between the element formation layer and the peeling layer, which is generated by peeling, so that electric charge generated on surfaces of the element formation layer and the peeling layer is diffused by the liquid.
